Bug ID: 156938
Summary: Recovery process reverts to previous version
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.5.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Multiple files open in Writer version 7.5.5.2
Select File --> Close on one file, and Writer shuts down closing all other file
windows.
Start Writer back up and it presents the option to "recover" the files that
closed automatically. If you hit yes, it doesn't actually recover the file but
reverts to some previous version from more than a day ago causing lost work.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have multiple files open
2.Select file --? close one file (Writer shuts down and closes all windows)
3.Start Writer again
4.Select files to recover
5.Get angry when the file is from 2 days ago and you lost work that you
actually had saved.
Actual Results:
The recovered files are not the latest version. It's like recovery means go
back in time to some previous save point and trash the actual most recent save.
Expected Results:
I would expect "recovery" to mean: the program shutdown suddenly, so we saved
everything just to make sure you didn't loose anything.
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: No
